My daughter who is in Grade 8 has been studying history with Gary for almost two months. She is very happy studying with Gary and I have to say Gary is very serious about teaching and would prepare well for the classes with references, books and handouts for my daughter to read and also he would teach the subjects accordingly to my daughter’s interests as well. I highly recommend his class!
Thanks so much
From Mon
Patient and reliable. It’s hard to understand my daughter’s school expectations compared to other schools, hence difficult to provide advice on improving her work hence can’t continue at this stage.
Thanks
From Lisa
From Fang
Gary is a very responsible tutor. He took on the challenge of developing into a new course - IGCSE 0680 Environmental Management for my daughter. He is well-organized on schedule and teaching contents. He maintains himself readily available on communications tools - email, Skype - handling student's questions as well logistic arrangements for us coming from China. :)
Thanks for your kind feedback. Gary
From Kate
I found Gary towards the end of the summer holidays to give my daughter some help with her Geography A Level NEA. Her school had given them no guidance at all and she was totally lost. Gary was incredibly helpful and went far above and beyond the call of duty - finding time at late notice and always responding to her and my requests out of tutor sessions. Would highly recommend him
Thanks for the feedback
From Charles
Gary has been an excellent tutor for our son. He is knowledgeable and engaging in his online tutoring, and provides excellent supplemental material to reinforce the sometimes obtuse content from the course material. He organizes the lessons well and is attentive to areas in the content where my son is struggling. We would highly recommend him.
Thanks for your kind feedback. Gary
From John
Gary tutored my son in Geography, focussing on those areas where additional support was needed. Gary was responsive and flexible where we had diary issues. My son found him to be easy to work with and supportive throughout.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Gary to others
Thanks for your feedback
From mike
We've found Gary to be a fantastic tutor and would be very happy to contact him again if our children needed further Geography tuition.
Thanks for the feedback
From Bhumika
I first approached Gary to tutor my elder son back in 2018 however he was fully booked back then. When my younger son needed support for his Geography NEA I found Gary again and luckily he had some capacity to take him on. My son achieved 69 out of 70 for his NEA, which was amazing. Gary is a very knowledgeable tutor in Geography and I would highly recommend him to anyone who requires GCSE or A-Level Geography tuition. You will not regret it.
Thanks for the excellent feedback. I was very happy to help.
From VINEET
My son who is taking a level is very happy with his lessons and says it is useful He has taken a few lessons now

Gary has been an absolutely brilliant A'Level geography tutor for our daughter. He is extremely personable and enthusiastic, has an in-depth knowledge of his subject and the exam board requirements, provided good materials, explained things extremely well, and provided a lot of helpful resources and insights when our daughter was preparing her NEA.
Thanks
From Carina
Gary has been an excellent tutor to my daughter during her A level geography course. His knowledge of the subject and methodology is excellent. My daughter appreciates Gary's calm and reassuring manner and he has always been super responsive as well as accommodating in weekly sessions to support any knowledge gaps or to go over anything of which she was unsure. He has also been an immense help to extend her thinking to improve her answers to exam questions. I would thoroughly recommend Gary as a tutor for geography. He has also helped my younger daughter with GCSE revision at short notice. Thank you!
Thanks for your kind comments
From Robert
Gary was very helpful in accommodating Geography tuition at short notice, despite being very busy and went the extra mile. Polite and easy to deal with, he has helped with a Geography revision programme. We would recommend Gary if you are looking for secondary school Geography tuition.
Thanks

We are very happy with Gary’s service. He was happy to remark my daughters work and had some very helpful feedback which improved her work.

Thanks
From Yasmin
Too early to comment on the impact of the teaching that Gary has delivered as only 3 lessons in and no exams done yet but my son is very much enjoying the lessons and finding them useful. Gary communicates really well, replies to any queries super-promptly and his CV /experience should enable his students to maximise their learning and be able to clearly demonstrate their knowledge when the exams come round.
Thanks

Thanks
From Neil
Gary quickly developed a very good rapport with my son and gained his confidence. Gary has excellent in-depth knowledge of the syllabus and exam specification. He identified the gaps in my son's knowledge and has provided materials and tutoring to address these. In doing this, he has made my son more confident in the subject which has in turn greatly improved my son's motivation.
Thanks
From Shaila
Gary helped my daughter with her A level Geography, helping her with topics she found difficult. He was professional and knows his subject inside out. He also knows what examiners are looking for. From a very bad year 12 summer exam, my daughter has just received A*. Gary’s guidance was invaluable during the short he helped my daughter in year 13. We cannot thank him enough.
Thanks for the feedback

From Jake

Thanks
From Caroline
Feeling very lucky to have found Gary for my 17yr old daughter. He was very quick to respond when setting up and my daughter was very upbeat after her first session. We have a few more to go but initial thoughts are excellent. My daughter likes his analogies to help understand concepts but he adds a hint of light heartedness too. She felt he was extremely knowledgeable and he has extensive knowledge.
Thanks
From Jo
Gary was a complete star at very short notice. He provided confidence and reassurance as well as some invaluable tips on how to improve a particular project.

Thanks
From Amanda
Gary has been brilliant with our daughter. He plans lessons meticulously and has really engaged with her specific curriculum. Our daughter missed almost the whole of year 10 due to illness and I feel she’s in totally safe hands with Gary ensuring she covers what she needs to catch up. Our daughter is thoroughly enjoying her lessons, and that’s so important in the learning process! Her confidence and awareness of what she needs to achieve is swelling. Highly recommend Gary. Super teacher, highly engaged and knowledgeable.
Thank you for the kind comments

Thanks
From NOLAN
We are very happy with Gary. Our daughter Ella looks forward to her lessons with him and has learnt so much in such a short space of time. The pace of the class is just right, so you feel challenged but not overwhelmed and Gary’s manner of teaching is so refreshing as he is patient, supportive, and knows how to motivate his students. He also keeps us as parents regularly informed of Ella’s progress We would highly recommend!
Thanks a lot
From Anna
Gary has passed over some really fantastic resources (wider reading) including exam papers and exam questions. We will go over content and often exam questions I’ve completed in my own time during lessons. Gary and I will then go over with an exam paper / essay for me to go home and complete. This way I can both improve my content knowledge and exam practice. The structure of our sessions is something we’ve gone over and figured out together which has been really useful.
Thanks
From Wendy
Gary tutored my son online throughout Year 13 which has been invaluable, especially during the lockdown. Gary's style of teaching is professional yet very friendly and patient, so my son felt comfortable asking for clarification of anything that he didn't understand. Charlie's progress with Gary's support has been amazing, I highly recommend him.
Thanks
From Alexandra
My son has had A level Geography tuition for a few weeks with Gary, and he is already more motivated and gets on really well with him. The tasks Gary sets are clear and achievable, and easy to build up upon. So he will definitely carry on with Gary as his tutor.
Thanks
From Kirstie
Gary has been excellent. He has helped build our daughter's confidence and her knowledge and she has achieved some excellent results. We thoroughly recommend Gary.

Very promt and thorough David really got a lot out of his lessons and enjoyed them, highly recommend Gary.

Excellent tuition, subject knowledge and most importantly ability to motivate. My son was feeling very discouraged after his teacher assessed grades this summer. After just a few on-line lessons with Gary his attitude had completely changed.
Thanks
From Karen
Garry has recently started working with my daughter who is preparing for A Level Geography exams in 2021. He has had an immediate positive impact on Nell’s confidence around the subject. Communication is smooth and professional. I would highly recommend.
Thanks
From Katherine
Gary tutored my son for his A level geography exam and we thought he was excellent. The tutoring was virtual rather than face to face, which worked well, and Gary was very helpful, including answering emails outside of sessions. My son felt so much more confident and better prepared for his exam. We would highly recommend Gary as a tutor.
Thanks
From Claire
Although tutoring will not be continuing due to some logistical issues at our end, Gary has replied rapidly to all enquiries and sought to accommodate my daughter's requirements. He has a capable and methodical manner and I would recommend him to anyone seeking help with geography and history. He has excellent knowledge of exam board requirements and provides well-structured lessons suited to the individual.
Thanks
From April
Gary was very prompt in his reply to my emails. He was very knowledgeable and my daughter has found him very helpful. Thank you!

My daughter has been struggling to keep up with her studies on Geology A-level during lock-down. Thanks to Gary she was able to catch up and gain understanding of the material. She has her end of the year test next week and she is not stressed about it this anymore! Gary was really helpful and professional in all aspects - communication and teaching. Thank you!
Thanks

Thanks
From Deepti
My daughter has had a couple of lessons with Gary so far. Gary is a very good teacher and extremely helpful! My daughter struggled with answering long answer type questions. Gary started off with going over the theory first to ensure that there are no gaps in her knowledge followed by a bank of long answer questions which he has given her to work on. My daughter looks forward to her lessons with Gary every week and I very much hope to see her improve.
Thank you
From Abdul
Very knowledgeable, efficient and helpful.
From Stephanie
My son was incredibly impressed with Gary as he was knowledgeable, personable and made learning fun. Thank you

Although my daughter has only had 3 lessons so far with Gary we can see the benefit . Gary is helping her with A-Level Geography , they have successfully covered one whole topic already and in depth.
Thanks
From Nikki
Gary has been invaluable in helping my son with his A'level Geography coursework. We are particularly impressed with the level of preparation for each session and it is clear he really cares about the students he tutors. My son has gone from being totally disinterested in Geography to becoming more focussed, confident and taking pride in the work he is doing. Gary is clearly an excellent tutor and we are so relieved he has been able to help us.
Thanks
From uzma
Very helpful so far !
Thanks
From Ann-Marie
Gary tutored my daughter for AS and A2 Geography, helping her gain an A in the final exam. Gary provided excellent advice on exam technique. I think his experience as an examiner was probably invaluable in this respect. His approach was very professional, reliable and caring. I thoroughly recommend him as a tutor for A level geography.
Thanks for the positive feedback
From Takako
My son works well with Gary and we are very pleased with his support.
Thanks
From Amie
Knowledgable and inspirational
From Ray
Gary is an excellent tutor; he helped our son with his A level environmental studies. He supplied him with good resources, and gave him feed back on his exam practice questions. He built our son’s confidence. We are grateful for your help. Ray and Kamla
Thanks
From Helen
Gary was instrumental in securing my son an A* grade in his Geography A level exam following a poor AS result and very late dyslexia diagnosis. We cannot thank Gary enough for the support, patience and excellent tutoring our son received and would highly recommend him to anyone.
Thanks
From Joanna
Gary was busy and didn't have a space when I first contacted him, however, as soon as a space came free he took the initiative to contact me again and luckily we were able to start with him. My daughter likes him and his style of teaching (despite not wanting to do tutoring over Skype initially). Gary is very professional and contacts us before every session to confirm availability. He has also prepared work for my daughter to complete so that he is able to assess her ability. We are very happy with him.
Thanks
From Elizabeth
Two sessions so far and Gary has been superb
From Genny
Early days, but very impressed with first lesson.
Thanks
From Sarah
Fantastic tutor. My daughter gained A*'s across the board in all subjects that Gary taught her. Thank you.
Thanks
From Eamonn
I have had excellent communication with Gary. Our first lesson is now booked .
Thanks
From Paul
Gary has provided my son, Guy, with a 1h weekly on line session over the whole of his upper sixth year to help him towards achieving his target geography A grade which he will hopefully attain in August. The support provided has been truly excellent - Gary is clearly a first rate educator and at the leading edge of his subject and the A level exam system. I can wholeheartedly recommend him. Its also worth pointing out that delivering the tuition on line is as effective as face to face tuition and is well suited to today's teenagers learning style.
Thanks for the very generous comments
From Rachel
My daughter has had an excellent first three sessions with Gary and is feeling so much more confident and organised about her A level Geography. Straightaway, Gary worked out exactly what my daughter had and had not covered as part of the new requirements of the syllabus, quickly identifying where there were gaps and also where additional knowledge would help get a good grade. Gary is extremely knowledgeable and experienced and my daughter has complete confidence in him and knows that in the sessions ahead that he will continue to guide her on all aspects of the syllabus. Thank you.
Thanks for your feedback
From Jyothi
My son is very happy with Gary. Explains very well and in detail and makes you feel more confident. Highly Recommended.
From Jan

From Marilyn
From Jacqueline
Gary is clearly in demand and I am very grateful to him for making time in his busy schedule to tutor my daughter.
Thanks
From Krystal
From Rose
Very well prepared and organised. The sessions have been really useful and developed my understanding of the geography A-level topics.
From Louise
During my gap year Gary was a great help with A-Level Geography. I was able to improve my previous A2 grade from a B to an A* with our lessons over the year. He is very supportive and patient which puts you at ease, and his extensive knowledge of the geography syllabus makes for an interactive and engaging lesson. I would highly recommend Gary as a tutor. Thank you again!
Thanks
From Hilary
Gary generously accommodated teaching my daughter during the final weeks leading up to her AS level in Geography.She had become disheartened with the subject at school, in particular having a struggle with the Physical Geography and how it was being taught. Over a handful of sessions Gary not only augmented her grade to an A at AS but more importantly boosted her confidence and interest in the subject. Instead of giving up at AS level, my daughter is now happily taking the subject at A2. Sincere thanks to Gary as not only does he have a broad knowledge of the various Geography exam boards and topics but also he knows how to motivate the student and get the best out of them.
Thanks for your gracious comments Best Gary
From Rose
Easy to arrange tutor sessions and is a good professional geography tutor.
Thanks
From Idhren
So far so good! After only 3 lessons, my son has settled into the online pattern of learning well. It is highly structured, with work (exam questions) being set for review during the next lesson. This is of enormous help to my son who has struggled with exam technique, teaching him to approach the questions in the correct way to maximise marks. In turn, his confidence is growing steadily. We have high hopes going forward…
Thanks
From Adrienne
Excellent tutor. OB had to redo his AS geog paper and went from a D to an A thanks to Gary's excellent support, Gary also helped OB to prepare for his A2 exams and OB achieved an A* in geography. I would wholeheartedly recommend Gary as a tutor.
Thanks for the generous comments.
From Jennifer
Gary was extremely helpful in tutoring me over Skype just a few days before my exam. He was committed to helping me even though it was last minute, and was happy to mark my work and send me loads of helpful resources. I am so grateful for his help!
Thanks for the feedback
From Mamit
An excellent tutor that goes the extra mile to help. Gary has been tutoring my daughter Geography A level. From day one he was so helpful, provided her with extra resources, is happy for her to email him with anything she is stuck on and he has helped her with her personal statement. He is an excellent tutor.
From Chandi
Very happy with gary
From Francesca
From Lesley
My son has found Gary's tuition very helpful in preparing for his Geography A level. Gary has excellent knowledge of the subject and is very familiar with the exam board specification (AQA) and the marking scheme. He has been very flexible, both in terms of scheduling the tutoring sessions and also on what is covered in the sessions. This has enabled my son to get the most benefit from his tutoring. I would not hesitate to recommend Gary.
From Peter
Very happy with first lesson, many thanks

From Jack
Very impressed. Professional, very knowledgable, personable, well organised and good communicator. Plans and makes the most out of a session.

From Galina
From Alexandra
Gary is a brilliant geographer, very professional, with a great deal of experience in preparing students for exams, and an intimate knowledge of the exam boards and system. He is easy to talk to and very supportive. Even though due to scheduling conflicts I wasn't able to continue studying with Gary, I highly recommend him as a tutor.
From Manmohan
Gary is an excellent Geography teacher at all levels. He taught both my son and daughter and got top marks in their exams. Very reliable and pleasant and friendly teacher and extremely organised and I would not hesitate on recommending him. He is also an very good English teacher as well.
From Jake
Gary has tutored my son in AS and A2 Geography over the past 4 months and I would wholeheartedly recommend him as a tutor. He is knowledgeable, encouraging, and fun during lessons, and has been flexible when arranging lessons around my sons other commitments. He has provided useful materials to help with exam preparation, and his specific and detailed knowledge of the exam marking system has been invaluable when he has marked and provided feedback on my sons work (which has been often). He is one of those rare tutors who is happy to 'go the extra mile' and my son and I are very grateful for his help. Thank you Gary.
From Debbie
Gary sounds excellent. We bought his contact details for the future really. His location and his busy-ness by the time we got in touch meant he couldn't help us for this summers exams.
From Malti
Gary is an excellent tutor, helpful, knowledgeable, approachable with a clear teaching method. I would recommend him highly to anyone in the future. Gary was able to connect with my son (Age15) very well, and gave him the help he needed to take Geography iGCSE as a private candidate with confidence. Gary was flexible with the lessons and keen to support my son to achieve the highest grade possible. Thanks Gary!
From Glyn
Gary helped our son Joshua with his A-Level Geography. Gary was excellent in all respects. He was timely, responsive and the quality of the help offered to Joshua was of a very high standard throughout. We would have no hesitation in strongly recommending Gary to future students. Glyn Harper
From Hilary
Gary has given our daughter Geography tuition for the last 5 months helping prepare her for the A-level exams. He has been brilliant and I recommend him highly.
From Dillon
Excellent tutor, who is willing to put the extra effort into help his students. Haven't sat my exams yet but very confident now thanks to Gary and his help.
From Mona
My son had one lesson from Gary and found him knowledgeable and an excellent communicator.
From Sarah
Gary is a thoroughly nice guy and a great tutor. I have had so many tutors over the years and I realise that unless you use someone who understands and has taught the subject its a waste. Gary knows his stuff and my son really enjoys going and he knows that he is in a very capable pair of hands.
Thanks for the kind feedback
From Jane
We are very pleased with the tutoring that Gary provides. He is knowledgeable about the subject and liaises with my daughter in advance of each session to make sure he is providing exactly what she needs. Really pleased how well using Skype is working well - saves a lot of travel time.
From Deborah
We are still waiting for the AS results, but Gary stepped in swiftly to help Rosie. I only wish we'd asked for his help earlier. Rosie is highly motivated, working her way through all past papers for each subject. But with Geography she couldn't answer any of the questions.The gaps in her knowledge were vast, so there was a lot for Gary to do. But he didn't flinch, even when Rosie's confidence sank to such a low ebb each time she realised how much of the Geography syllabus she didn't yet know. So, whatever happens, without Gary's help Rosie would have lacked the confidence and the knowledge to tackle the past papers etc, do the work she needed to do to better prepare herself for the exam. Thank you, Gary.
From Brian
I would have no hesitation in recommending Gary as a tutor for geography. He helped our daughter a great deal at short notice prior to her final exams.
From James
A great tutor- very professional.
From Frances
Gary thank you for the lessons with Melodie. She really enjoyed the sessions. You made the topics very accessible for her and provided her with a structure and format which made revision very easy. You were very understanding with our situation and I really appreciated that. The lessons via skype worked really well. Melodie went into her exam feeling confident and as a result she said the exam went well. Thank you for not only teaching Melodie but also making her feel confident in her knowledge of the subject. Thank you so much, Regards Frances
From Belinda
Pete has found the sessions over the internet very helpful; it is working well for him and means he can access help from anywhere with a computer and privacy. Having 1 on 1 tuition and guidance with someone who is an experienced Geography teacher and also an examiner with Edexel is worthwhile and gives him the best chance of getting good grades. Thanks Gary.
From Emma
Gary is an excellent tutor; completely on top of the curriculum for geography. Effective, efficient with an easy-going manner; all conducive to reducing stress in the build up to exams. Thank you.
From Vasily
Gary is an excellent tutor, who is making sure that his students get highly academic, deep and structured knowledge of the subject, allowing them to succeed at any level of learning process (from class and homework to tests and exams).
From Nicole
thanks for the help - don't think i would have even passed without it :)
From Anne
Gary stepped into the breach and provided some last minute tutoring for a geography exam. He managed to get all the bases covered and patiently guide my son through a lot of detail, who got a huge amount of value from the session. He then assisted subsequently by sending relevant materials. A real find.
From Anna
My daughter has found her skype sessions with Gary incredibly beneficial. She has grown in confidence and her ability to interpret the question in order to present relevant knowledge has increased substantially. She was quite uncertain about tutorials on skype but decided to give it a go when we could not find an A ' level Geography titur within a reasonable distance. In reality skype has worked really well and it has not hindered discussions in any way. I am so glad we decided to skype with Gary rather than going with someone less experienced face to face as his knowledge, experience and teaching methods are excellent. I would throughly recommend Gary as a tutor and skype sessions as a method of holiding tutorials.
From Anna
Gary helped my daughter a lot with her geography coursework. A very good and experienced tutor and I would definitely recommend! Thanks Gary
From Tania
The lessons are proving to be excellent and I am delighted we found you. Although only a few lessons so far it is clear they are helping Natascha to focus on getting a clearer direction how to approach the tasks she has, how to organise doing this and getting a better understanding of the topics involved. She is also appearing to enjoy the subject more as I can see a renewed enthusiasm in a subject that she has never particularly liked. Hope we can continue to fit in as many lessons as possible this GCSE year. Thank you Tania
From Tracy
3 weeks in and Tom is finding the discussions and case studies very useful as well as feeling much more confident about how to answer exam questions. We are very pleased with how the tutoring is going and are very glad that we have taken this approach early in the exam year to help Tom. Many thanks
From Andrea
This is my son's first experience of online tutoring and Gary made him feel at ease straightaway. We have had three lessons and Gary is well organised and gives excellent feedback. He is really helping my son to feel more confident with his course and would recommend him as a tutor. Thank you
From Emma
Gary, thank you for all of your help with Emma's Geography, she achieved her A as required and is of f to Leeds. Hope all is well with you and your family. best wishes Mary
From Thomas
Gary is extremely knowledgeable and organised and has been very helpful in my work for A Level Geography. I would highly recommend him
From Krysia
Thank you Gary for tutoring my daughter at such short notice. She found your expertise invaluable. Your preparation for the lesson was well structured and she brought home valuable knowledge. Thank you for all the additional handouts you provided, absolutely delighted to have found someone so professional.
From Dorota
Absolutely amazing tutor, professional and very friendly, my son only had a few lessons but already is much happier and more confident with the subject, huge improvement!! Thank you so much!!
From Graeme
My son found the lessons invaluable and will gladly return if more tuition is needed in the future
From Cheryl
After two lessons I have found Gary to be well organised and knowledgeable in his field of expertise, making it both easy and interesting to restudy geography under him. Outside lessons I am sent useful study materials that is related to the topics covered, and this has also served as a useful reminder to homework set. As an international student studying overseas, I have no other means of getting help with my A Level Geography retakes and so, Gary is definitely a great help. Thank you.
From Debra
Gary has been and continues to be, a great help to my son. I have no hesitation in recommending him.
From Elizabeth
Very helpful and well prepared even before first lesson. Wish we had found Gary last year and then would not be in position of having to do a retake
From Raina
Gary is an excellent tutor. He is very friendly and supportive. He has lots of experience and he is very knowledgeable. He is also very efficient, resourceful and professional.
From Andrew
Gary was a great help with A-Level Geography - improving my exam technique and helping to consolidate knowledge on some of the more minor bits of the exam specification. He was also great outside lessons - sending extra links to help consolidate knowledge and responding to any queries and marking any questions I had done. I would highly recommend him as a tutor.
From Frances
Hi Gary - you were invaluable helping Laurence through AS. It was great for him to have help with exam technique as well as receiving motivation and encouragement and increasing his enthusiasm for the subject. Fingers crossed now for results day. Laurence enjoyed his sessions with you and is not merely resigned to coming back for A2 but actually looking forward to it - testament indeed. Many thanks.
From A C
Our daughter was on the verge of dropping IGCSE geography when we managed to secure Gary as a tutor. Gary, a true professional, has been both patient and supportive and she has found him to be a fantastic tutor who has helped her to grasp the more complex Geography topics and in doing so given her a much needed confidence boost. We can't recommend him enough
Thank you for the kind comments GW
From Jennie
During my gap year I applied to Oxford University, I therefore had Gary as a weekly tutor to help me prepare for my interview while I was not in full time education. As Gary and I did not live that close to each other, we decided to have the tutorials over skype. This worked very well. I found Gary very professional and organised. He would always send me articles to read during the week that we could discuss during the tutorials. He is very good at looking at a range of topics, and his knowledge of Geography is far beyond text book, making him an interesting and insightful tutor. Having had Gary tutor me for 6 weeks, I had my interview and was given a place at Oxford. Although I also did my own revision on top of my tutorials, I feel Gary gave me the confidence and experience to discuss Geography interlectually and helped me to look at certain issues with a more dynamic perspective. I would recommend Gary to any student who is interested in Geography!
From Mary
My son felt his lessons with Gary were a great help to him in his preparation for his forthcoming exams and is looking forward to more classes with him. Sessions were well planned and Gary kept us briefed as to how things were going. Many thanks.
From Fiona
My 17 year old son has been highly impressed with the standard of tuition he has received from Gary over the past 3 months; each tutorial session has clearly been carefully considered beforehand and tailored to meet my son’s individual needs. Gary is a very experienced, effective, and genial tutor and he clearly has a thorough understanding of the Geography curriculum, and the demands of different “A” Level syllabuses. The pre-session preparation of materials and post-session delivery of study materials is also excellent.
Although we live some distance away from Fulham, these journey’s have been very worthwhile.
From Holly
The online tuition which Gary is doing via skype is working extremely well. My daughter is doing resits for AS level and ongoing A level work and we have been impressed with how quickly Gary has assessed her needs and provided information to fill the gaps in her knowledge.His subject knowledge is excellent and he has been able to provided resources to test progress. He has given me feedback where appropriate, and my daughter really enjoys working with him. We hope to continue lessons with him for some time to come.

From Aaron
Excellent start to covering the specific unit topcs and the discussion approach works well for me, as the sessions are very interactive and interesting, which greatly supports my learning.
From Sheila
Someone who is enthusiastic about General Studies! My son struggles to understand how questions should be answered in any subject but General Studies has really got him, until Gary's enthusiasm and thoroughness have inspired him. Being educated at home always leaves a 'gap' in learning and I think, in Gary, we should be able to tackle the A level exams confidently -please!
From Linda
Gary is an excellent, experienced tutor, he is very supportive, patient, professional and has extensive knowledge of the geography curriculum. He is always prepared for our lessons and my confidence has grown as he identified my individual learning needs quickly. I would highly recommend Gary.

Gary was an outstanding Tutor and I couldn't recommend highly enough. With his experience, subject expertise and wealth of knowledge he enabled my daughter to gain her A* at A'level and secure her place at Oxbridge. We felt very fortunate to have secured Gary's support, the one to one support and individual attention made all the difference in gaining the very top grade.
